SPAR Norway partners with food blogger to create anti-food waste weekly menu

January 24, 2023 IN THE CATEGORY: Responsible retailing

SPAR Norway has partnered with one of the country's most popular food bloggers to create a weekly menu without food waste. The SPAR country organisation challenged Marit Røttingsnes Westlie – better known as the food blogger Mrs Timian – to create an inspiring weekly menu free of food waste.

One of Marit’s best tips for avoiding food waste is good planning and sticking to one weekly shopping day.

“My suggestion is to use seasonal ingredients and ensure that a selection of the same side dishes and vegetables are used in different dishes. However, you can vary the main ingredients”, advises Marit.

She describes the menu she has created in collaboration with SPAR Norway as down to earth, with simple dishes suitable for most people. 

Mrs Timian’s advice for less food waste:

  • Use seasonal produce and let the same vegetables return in different dishes
  • Check what you have in the fridge before you go to the store
  • Dinner leftovers are great for packed lunches
